Well, git isn't that good at telling you what conflicts on a delete/modify
conflict - all it does is leave you the modified file in the tree and
expect you to know what changes were made to it between the version which
was deleted, and the modified version.
The various git diff combinations really don't help you either - all you
get told by git is that the file is 'unmerged' and that's it.
I'd say these are the kind of merges which are always going to be full of
errors - and I doubt there's anything which can really be done to stop
them being so (unless git starts marking the file with merge conflict
markers for those changes I describe above.)
